Welcome to the newest Fizz Hangout! Every Friday, you all can stop by the weekly Fizz Hangout post and ask questions (to us or to your fellow patrons), discuss recent bonus scenes and/or podcasts with each other, and catch up on all the goodies you might've missed!

HANGOUT QUESTION: we love seeing your response to questions about the Like Us series, and it helps facilitate some awesome discussions! Each week, there'll be a new "hangout question" that you can answer in the comments, if you wish!

What has been your favorite Luna & Donnelly moment in the Like Us series so far? (We are deep in our Lunnelly feels these days! ✨)

Weekly Recap

Happy Friday, beauties! Thank you all so, so much for joining us this May!! It's the very start of the month, so there is still a lot left to drop on Patreon. Speaking of Patreon, they've been having system tweaks & updates this year, and one of the big things is a change to the subscription billing system. They're allowing creators to have the option to charge new patrons monthly on the same date they joined. We've never loved the fact that when patrons first join too close to the end of the month, you all are charged again on the first of the month, so you have such a short window to go through the content for your $1 or $5. But now Patreon has a billing option where new patrons are charged on the same date they join and then monthly on that same exact date.

What's changing: We'll charge new patrons the date they join, then monthly on that same date (instead of the 1st of the month).

Existing patrons won’t see any changes, and are still charged on the 1st of the month.

Before we go ahead and make this change -- because it's permanent and cannot be reversed -- we want to ask if you all would've preferred this billing system when you initially subscribed? For all of you, you won't see a change, but we'd love to know your thoughts for future patrons 💕

And in case you missed it, the poll dropped for the monthly podcast! You still have time to vote, so definitely check it out:

- Poll: Vote on May's Monthly Podcast (now open, closes Sunday morning EST.)

- Suggestion Box: Suggestions for the May Monthly Podcast

Gabby Rojas

dirty dancing in Scotland is definitely one of my favorite lunnelly scenes

Vi Truong

Happy Friday!!!! I can’t wait 💕💕 will be checking the store daily 😍

Haley Secen

Their first moment about Sad Aliens and potential merch has always been one of my favorites, and more recently - “you’re in love with your friend?” “I’m in love with you.” Yeah I have not yet emotionally recovered from that scene

Remy

To answer the question about billing; yes I would have liked that system when I first subscribed. When I joined it was the 30th and I still got charged 1 day later! I was a little annoyed but I didn’t care that much because I’d pay whatever amount to read y’all’s bonus scenes. 😂😂 Anyways, I think this is a great update to the billing system!

Haley Secen

Also I’m VERY excited for Misfits character notes in the special editions. Seeing any notes in these covers has been my dream 🥹😍 I’m gonna be refreshing the shop like crazy 😂

Maria

I have a question feel free not to answer. If the core 8 would be in the hunger games what couple would die off first and what couple would win? (Let's say the couples are a team and don't have to kill each other. For example Lily&Lo are a team)

Maria

To answer the billing question I feel like this would be a much better option! That way people don't wait to subscribe on the first so they won't get charged back to back

Megan

I think this new billing option is better, however I didn't know when I signed up that the billing worked the way it did so I don't think I even noticed.

terra

I think my favorite, Luna and Donnelly moment is when they’re dancing in the club, because they are just so comfortable with each other from even just the beginning!! swoon!! I also really love that Donnelly put Luna and her family over himself, and what he wants at that moment, even though yes, it broke my heart… it shows the kind of man Donnelly is and how much love he has for Luna!

Cait

My favorite lunnelly moment is when they stuck stickers to each other’s faces in Misfits

terra

to answer the billing question, I don’t even know what day I started, and I really didn’t notice getting double charged but I think it’s a great idea and people will like it going forward! I personally would pay just about any amount to stay on the Patreon, double charge or not but I understand that not everybody can afford a double charge so I think it’s a really great idea!

Teresa

I didn't notice it until last year, I joined a couple of patreons from other people and I got billed twice due to the date I joined. I didn't want it to happen again so I canceled them and joined again on certain dates to help keep track so this new system is definetly easier

Lauren G

Some of my favorite Luna and Donnelly moments have happened in bonus scenes like their encounter after the bachelor parties in HLU with the pretzel/cig swap. But honestly it’s impossible to choose! I love them all so much!

Rachel Parsons

Their first kiss was definitely my favorite moment. It was just *chef’s kiss* perfect!

Angelina (Charlies version) ♟️

Their first kiss is one of the best first kisses ever written!! Ive reread the scene a million times and I tear up every time its so good!!

Kayla Reynolds

My favorite scene has to be Luna asking Donnelly why he goes by Donnelly and not Paul. It’s a little scene but it’s so tender to me and I love it! CANT WAIT for the cover reveal!! ❤️

Lindsay Hunter

Same! Swoon 🥹🥰☺️💜✨💚

Meagan

I love anytime these two are together but I would say my favorite scenes from Misfits was in the mirror room when they finally got to confess their feelings and have their first kiss. I also loved the scene leading up to her rica being leaked. Where they were just together in her room watching their favorite show. It was so sweet to just see them finally get to be together and be happy.

Caro

Hey Krista and Becca! Quick question - will Unlucky Like Us be available to pre order for Love N Vegas?

Keatia Savage

The bar scene after the triple dates, especially when Luna and Donnelly are lying on the ground and he shows her his tattoo😭

Illyana

Happy Friday girls! Ay no problem with the billing thing, whatever works for ya'll! And with Lunalley...my fav moment of theirs are obviously the fluffy moments when they confided in one another in their room when its just the two of them against the world's prejudices talking about everything and anything pre-during-post coitus at the end of misfits :P XDXD I think it's so real and sweet of them. I think the only other couple that didn't get ever fully lost in 'the moment' which was so sweet, was Lily and Lo, where they'd have full convos about life while they're at it like its no biggie! That's so REAL of them ! Can't wait for more during Unlucky Like Us hehe.

Illyana

I just got back late last night back in London from visiting my parents in Portugal! My parents live half their time in Italy (Tuscany) and the other half in Portugual! Just in time for the... coronation... 😅. Nah JK, i'm a supporter i have no beef with old Chuck, the Diana mistreatment and his lamentations are before my time but i do kinda side eye... but you know, I think our generation is more preoccupied with the drama of this generation's Meghan, Harry, William etc. Man i really want to bleach all the stuff Harry said in his book about "his todger" (who the fuck says todger anymore.. smh) Anyway, I think Charles seems a decent chap, the causes he aligns himself with are similar to the causes I align with, reforestation, improved agriculture, traditional architecture/town planning. I do also enjoy the pomp of royal events even if the traditions were made up for tourists by Victorian civil servants. Will yall be tuning in? and guess GUESS WHAT?! My two fav things rn are- my vpn which FINALLY lets me reroute to the US, and a girlfriend who lives there was kind enough to give me her users and passes (and I vice versa for Prime and Paramount) for Hulu and HBO Max! How FUN! Now I downloaded them onto the tv and can finally view these two bloody channels! What are you currently watching? :D I'm currently watching the Real Housewives of Atlanta and am watching the entire run and am on S3! Do you guys watch this franchise? NeNe is HILARIOUS! And I actually LOVE CYNTHA AND PHADRA! What are your thoughts on Kim? XDXD My other latest fav is Drunk Elephant products?! I loveeee these things! On the one hand, they feel like i'm play with legos, mixing and matching making me feel like a kid again, and the other I have terrible adult acne and it really has given me the best results out of all skincare! Wow! I could def see its results yet playfulness be something that Lily, Daisy, Willow, Luna and Jane have fun with! I am still DYING for a skincare reveal from either of these three! Somewhere in the books, podcasts (rip they shall never win i feel haahah) or bonus chapters hehe. I am still convinced Rose would use very formally drive products like La Mer or Chanel although they do test on animals... *side eye* so maybe she might feel guilty. IDK! These are the questions that need to be answered! hehe. Do you guys have any fav skincare products you've been loving? xoxoxo

Sioned

I would really enjoy a skincare routine/night routine of all the characters! Well the girl squad didn’t win for years but it happened eventually so never say never 😌 I know I’m not krista and becca buuuuut I’ve been loving this cream called calendula! It’s been working wonders for me :) what about you? Do you have any shincare tips you’ve been implementing rn? xo

Sioned

😮😮😮Dudeeee you’re going to have so many copies!! How are you planing to fit them all 🫣😂

Illyana

WE MUST MANIFEST SKINCARE/NIGHT ROUTINE IN THE BOOKS AND PODS SIONED! WE SHARE THE SAME VISION :P Can you imagine if Moffy gets gifted some skincare form Jane to try out and Farrow catches him trying it out? I WOULD DIE TO SEE THAT INTERACTION :P Would he take the micky out of Moffy? Would he ask to join in? Would he take a photo? hehehe. And OMG what does calendula do? i had to google it but i'm afraid im new to the whole skincare game! And Drunk Elephant works for me just well! I love the mixing and matching tips found on their website here - https://www.drunkelephant.com/smoothie-glossary/ And have a lot of fun with it! I have a lot of their products hehe. And highly recommend it and they last forever! and are super clean, no toxins, no animal cruelty whatsoever! Def worth the buck!

Haley Secen

I actually don’t have any final copies of Misfits Like Us yet because I wanted to save room for the signed ones!

Lauren Gibbs

I can't believe it's already May, but I'm so ready for more Lunnelly! ✨️💓 I know it's basic but I love the eating her out for science, that's still one of my absolute favorite moments! Also because of how messy everything got with Jane sneaking around and AH! All the fun 🤣 I've subscribed to Kobo in Japanese before since I'm bilingual, but I've seen it getting bigger in America lately. Maybe it's time to check it out! 👀🙌🏻

madzz

I think my favorite moment of Lunelly love is when they individually confess their feelings to Lo. Both of them try keep their love from each other and others around them. They aren't very successful but they try. When they find opportunity to talk to Lo about it, who is the only reason they are seperated, they just talk about how much they love each other or like each other. Luna says something like he won't ever go out with me because of you. Donelley is explaining why he will always protect Luna and break his promises to Lo so that he can protect her. He says I am not a big bad wolf trying to destroy fathers and daughters. Another similar scene is when Donnelly says to Farrow girl has my heart❤️. They try to not mention love or liking each other, go out of the way to explain its just friendship. Even to frog, who is willing to give them time so that they can spend it with each other, Luna never says I like him. She just lets her help. So, the few times they do say the words is ❤️. Having said that, they are terrible at hiding their feelings. Literally everyone who is close to them knows or can make a guess😂😂😂. Except probably the Cobolt boys. So when they do acknowledge each other to outsiders, I like it. Specially Lo, coz others might explode. Lo will go nuclear. Lol. I think when they do get to express themselves in the public they will be very much a PDA couple. I am waiting for that.

Angelina (Charlies version) ♟️

Rose wouldn’t use animal tested products due to her own morals but also because of Ben!! Im so sure of that!! I would love love love a Skincare routine of the characters it would be so fun we absolutely have to manifest it because we all have the same vision!! And OMG I absolutely need to see how Farrow would react if he caught Moffy doing skincare I feel like he’d either join in or make fun of him and then they’d probably end up kissing and it would be the sweetest 🥹 THATS MY VISION BUT I NEED IT TO BE CANON 🫠

Shelby Keating

I know it’s still a while before we get Charlie’s pov, but I’d like to put in a request for a bonus scene whenever we do. I so badly want to see chapter 30/31 of sinful like us from charlies pov. When Jane is insisting to send nudes for the game because she wants to be thatcher’s equal, and then he finds out they have broken up before.

Shelby Keating

And jane says “he’s never seen me this way” about how charlie is seeing her vulnerable and anxious. I’d love to know how he feels seeing that.

Illyana

Hi doll! Yes i do agree that Rose wouldn't want to test on animals! But it seems like all those Sax Fifth Avenue brands like La Mer, Chanel, Este Lauder, Skin Ceuticals etc. test on animals because they sell in South East China because it's the law! That's why I am SO here for an avengers assembled war tribunal for the Lore Queens to discuss what the famous ones get to once they meet there bi-daily mirror check. I NEED to know what Donnelly is up to :P His daily morning and evening routines alongside his journal entries i ASPIRE TO! HE'S THE BEST! HE WOULD DEF DO A TIK TOK LIVE RANDOMLY WHILE HE DOES SKINCARE ROUTINE!!

Sioned

Ohhh smart smart thinking 👏👏

Illyana

OOO what about perfumes! Perfumes that the famous ones and taken body guards fav perfumes! That would be awesomeeeeeee

Lindsay Hunter

So spot on. Love this! ✨💚💜💫

Shelby Keating

Completely random, but I was rereading some of my favorite scenes from some kind of perfect, and I think I’ve decided on my favorite ever line describing Charlie. “And not to mention our other one-year-old that already knows forty-words and chooses to say wrong more than hello. Charlie.” Lmao, even at the age of one, charlie is unapologetically, charlie.

Shelby Keating

Can we get a conor pov of the parents reaction to the moffy and Jane incest rumors in Lovers Like Us?

Yasti

I noticed some of the Pinterests boards reappearing! 🥳 Also on that happy note, on May 9th it’ll officially be a year since I joined the Patreon 😇💗💗

Krista & Becca Ritchie

Oooooh, this is such a good alternate universe (or actually, it's kinda sad to think about, but it's still interesting 😂) -- Now, if we thought about this longer, it might actually fill an entire podcast with theories about what could happen. But we could see Lily & Lo both succeeding but also failing in certain scenarios. They'd be REALLY good at hiding away, so no one would be able to find them until the end. And if they're playing as a team, then they wouldn't need to pull a Romeo & Juliet move (there's no way they would want to live without the other). Ryke & Daisy would have really good outdoor skills, but they're a bit more reckless and they would go out first. Connor & Rose are very strategic, but we could see them not lasting as long as Lo & Lily bc they still wouldn't be quite as stealthy. Rose and Connor really love to converse with one another, and their talking (and ability to tune out others when they're "verbally sparring") could be the death of them.

Krista & Becca Ritchie

Thanks for your thoughts! We are definitely leaning towards doing the new billing system. Seems like that might be the best option

Krista & Becca Ritchie

Aw thank you so much for your kind words, Terra!! 🥰🥰 And for your input in the billing!! Super helpful xoxo

Krista & Becca Ritchie

Ahh this means so, so much to us! That scene actually took a pretty long time for us to write. We did so many passes over it together. We might've spent a whole week just on that part ☺️

Krista & Becca Ritchie

Since we've already made the pre-order form for Love N Vegas (and you can pre-order books till August 15th), it's likely we won't add Unlucky Like Us on there. But it'll be available on retailers to purchase before the event, and we'll try to bring some copies to sell at our table as well 💗

Krista & Becca Ritchie

We didn't tune into the coronation, but we've seen some clips online! I did listen to Harry's entire audiobook out of curiosity, and the parts about his frozen penis almost gave me whiplash (I did a double-take while I was cooking dinner lol). I totally did NOT expect him to talk about that at all. OMG you have so many amazing things to look forward to with HBO Max!!! Currently watching: Yellowjackets, Top Chef, Superman & Lois, Braves (baseball lol), Challenge: World All-Stars, Survivor 44. That's about it. I don't have time for much else at the moment since we have so many deadlines. I do want to try to watch Silo on Apple+, though! And I need to finish The Last of Us (Krista already finished that one). We actually haven't ever seen Real Housewives of Atlanta. Maybe it's because we live in ATL, and we typically like escapism in our reality TV. I've loved the ladies when they're on the Girls Trip seasons though! And we've heard Kim is a character on RHOA lol. I'll have to check out the Drunk Elephant podcast. Oh we would LOVE to take skincare tips for Rose! She's probably definitely tried so many different brands and is loyal to her favs. Krista is much bigger on makeup/skincare than I am. I tend to just ask her what I should buy 😂

Krista & Becca Ritchie

LOL OMG I read that as "Drunk Elephant" podcast and it was meant to be "products" -- makes 10x more sense 😂😂😂 I'm definitely going to look into it! I'm a beauty novice around here. Don't know much, but I definitely fall for IG ads on things if I'm in the "my skin needs help and revived" mood 😂

Krista & Becca Ritchie

It's on our list of possibilities 💗 We have wanted to write around that timeline in other POVs to see more reactions. It'd be a good one, especially in Connor's POV!

Krista & Becca Ritchie

Omg yayyy!! That's such good news! And woot woot, thank you sooooo, so much for your continued support here, Yasti! 🥳 *hugs so tight*

Shelby Keating

Since we got podcast for a peek at beckett, jo, and leo, and even a catch up podcast on them, can we get a peek at charlie and roxanne? 👀

Zeynep

I have a question and I might have just missed this 😁, since KTS new edition is coming out soon, do we know the bonus material, is it going to be announced here or is it simply a surprise? 💙

Sioned

😂 the debating would be the death of them 🫠

Illyana

Haha Yes! Drunk Elephant as in, in skincare line! it's a really fun skincare line! Yeah, Harry and Meghan took oversharing to whole other level... And I know they have beef with the monarchy, sure, but IDK if i really respect them making everyone (even worse, family members) around them collateral damage to lift themselves up yah know. And I really took offence when Harry when on his book tour took back the stuff that he said, saying, "i didn't say in the oprah interview that they were racists, you guys took with and ran with it?! What I meant is that there is unconcious bias" and I'm just like. Hold up. Now, I know ur feelings r ur feelings, but don't try and manipulate everything yah know. You literally implied that family members where speculating in a bad way the race of a baby, that's literally racist. And that Meghan was bullied because of her race. 'Unconscious Bias' is a completely different thing. That's just, if you're picking members of a baseball team, you choose folks who ur familiar with, on both ends. And they sat on the belief that their family members are racists for 3 years, gaining humanitarian awards and reaping the benefits of it. IDK, i may be dumb and a bit of a blonde sometimes, but evidentially they have been profiting off of that narrative they dropped. To me the whole beef that they're having, at the end, is sad because it wrecks the generations to come. Like, think about their kids and their cousins! How upsetting that they're not apart of each others lives! Idk, like the aries i am, i'm super loyal, so even if i feel disrespected by family members, i always remember they're not always gonna be around, so make the most with the time we have been given on this Earth lol. But hey! Another day, another drama with the royals! This is the Way! And oo I should TOTALLYYYY check out Top Chef! I'm assuming its a chef competition? How is it different from Master Chef? And I just started Yellowjackets too! It's seems pretty ominous and it reminds me a lot of lost! Did you guys watch that series? I think you would like it if Survivor and The Challenge is right up your alley! I also wanted to watch Succession, are you guys up to date with that series? I remember in a pod somewhere you guys said that Coballoway would watch it too! Or wouldn't? I can't remember the verdict hehe. And the Braves! Wohoo! My team (soccer) plays the the semi-final champions league this year, Inter, and I'm so excited! The game is tonight and i'm nervous at 9am! LOL! Let's win my blue princes :'))) What time do you guys start watching tv btw! I get home normally quite late due to work (around 9pm) and I have the tv going on in the background while I cook, but i normally really settle into bed and start watching at 10pm and hit the lights by 12. If i could i'd stop working at 5pm but alas...

Sioned

I don’t think your being a dumb blond about this (harry and meghan) thing at all Laura! I’m from the uk too so a lot of the harry maghan and monarch-y stuff pop up on my feed. It drove me up the wall when harry had the nerve to our right lie and say that he didn’t say that his family were being racist! 🤯 1) if you’re going to make a statement like that it should be for a good reason. Ie it being the truth. 2) if it’s such a big deal why in the world would you life about it when someone asks you??? It simply doesn’t make sense and didn’t make them look any better. I have sympathy for Meghan, whether or not she’s pulling a big L on us or not I think she should have been prepared more. On how the family operated and how to cultivate relationships with them. They aren’t “normal” (I dislike using that term but it fits) people they’re the monarchy. I’m not a huge fan of the monarchy but if your going to marry into it your spouse should have to do you a bit more about them, you know? I too few bad for the younger generations. I myself haven’t always had the easiest experience with my cousins and it’s awful when family’s inside a family get pitted against one another 🫤

Illyana

Hi darling Sioned! 🫂😇💐 I utterly agree. OMG the car chaise thing that came out last night that was all over the evening standard?! I saw that on my way out from work past rush hour and i was like... not to presume... but like... how much do we want to bet this is such an embellishment of the situation to garner sympathy? AGAIN?! alkdfja;k And then a couple hours later the Mayor of NYC said that it was fully trafficked and there was no big 'car chaise' possible in the most CONGESTED CITY IN THE WORLD a;ldkjfa;ldskjf 🤣😅 And it's hard b/c like you said, I really want to like them, but it's starting to be very much 'the boy who cried wolf' b/c there will be a time, when there is a legitimate reason for a call to action (and not for paparazzi at a public event) and it won't be as immediate b/c they have manipulated truth so much that their warranties are discounted heavily. I just wish I could know how Connor would react to the entire PALAVA. his take would be so economical in feels but so spot on 🤪💭🤌💕

Illyana

Also If I may add, I don't doubt that they feel what they feel, like, they probably truly felt violated maybe by paparazzi taking photos but like.. have some self awareness about what you choose to disclose to the public. A 'near catastrophic' chaise by paparazzi, when the MO of NYC taxi drivers is chaos and confusion, coupled with photos that showed them not even wearing seatbelts and smiling is not going to land with the public. Much less people who make less then them like myself and never expect any ounce of sympathy from fellow everyday hyper caffinated under slept people.

Sioned

See my fatal flaw is not actually watching the news…🫠 I understand why others watch it but whether I watch it or not I’ll find out eventually, I suppose 😂 for some people it makes them feel “safer” because they then know what sort of horrific grimes are going on in their neighbourhood but for me it’s the COMPLETE opposite! One of my friends just told me that a girl from a boarding school, literally down the road from me was found dead 💀 I obviously had no idea but like it didn’t instil any positive emotions in me, ya know. It just made me scared, absolutely hate what exam pressure is doing to kids (because the police think it to be a suicide) and really sad for the family. Sorry to get so heavy and slightly emerge from the topic 😓. I’ve always been taught (not necessarily always applied it to my life…😂) to not expect anyone to understand me (wholly) and feel empathy for me. Nobody owes us sympathy, sure it would be nice if they did but humans aren’t always nice. As history shows so I really don’t understand why such a wealthy person, when unfortunately that holds a lot of weight in today’s society, would even try to gain the world’s sympathy let alone be irritated when they all don’t! It’s just a little backwards. Yes they’re humans. Yes they should be treated with kindness I don’t fault them for asking for it but to complain about media attention and the danger it brings to their lives but to then continue to put themselves out there is just bonkers and backwards. To anyone to is reading this and disagrees I hope you don’t think I hate them! I’m just questioning their actions, hopefully in a non horrible way 🤞 Ps. I wish patreon had separate chats for the patreons! X

Sioned

Id kill to get all the addicted/like us characters responses to real life media debates! To see the differing opinions, views, and reactions would be priceless 🥳🥳 Like who would actually tweet out stuff in response to meghan and Harry’s…stuff?😂 Three more but I can’t think of any right now..what do you think?
